1-2 is not a "chirp." It's a sustained spin... you can really roast the tires on a hard 1-2 shift with this car, especially if it's cool out.

Also -- one big thing that really seems to get morons in trouble with this car is shifting hard while accelerating through a corner. I guess most people don't realize what happens in a turn when you suddenly lose rear traction.
